Chapter 306: Chapter 306: Inciting Crime

Su Meixi was aware that Wang Bing was feeling down lately, so she didn’t want to purposely expose her.

She thought it was best to pretend she hadn’t seen her; after all, they were far apart, and Wang Bing wouldn’t be able to see her.

Later on, the band arrived, and Ah Sun, as usual, sang a song for the person who had bought the most roses. Tonight’s wealthy lady teased him intentionally, asking him to sing “Barge Hauler’s Love”.

The post-millennials might not know this song, an old love song, but Ah Sun happened to know how to sing it. Without making excuses, he began, “Sister, you sit at the bow, brother, I walk on the shore, loving and caring, the tow rope swinging gently…”

This song was originally quite cheerful, but Ah Sun’s band, playing the guitar with a folk twist, performed it in a deep tone, which was very pleasant to the ears.

After finishing this song, he looked at Wang Bing in the audience, “Are there any other sisters who would like to request a song?”

Among the sisters who bought roses, the first place was public knowledge, but the following ranks were not disclosed.

So nobody knew who was second.

Ah Sun always asked Wang Bing, leading others to assume that Wang Bing was the second place.

Wang Bing said, “I want to hear ‘Smile’.”

Another old song that Ah Sun just so happened to know.

“Often thinking, you with your smile, are right beside me now, but but I, cannot make out, whether you are close or far from me…”

This song, warm and gentle, brought on a sentimental vibe, turning the bar into a more serious setting.

As everyone was immersed in Ah Sun’s deep and husky voice, suddenly, a woman screamed.

She was scantily clad; although the temperature in the bar wasn’t cold, she was only wearing a piece of lingerie with a tight-fitting miniskirt, and even by bar standards, her outfit was rather outrageous.

Her scream drew everyone’s attention her direction. However, when people looked over, she had returned to her normal demeanor, making it hard to discern what she was up to.

Someone cursed, “Freaks always looking for attention.”

And continued listening to Ah Sun sing.

However, Su Meixi’s attention was fixed on that woman. Around 25 years old and because of her extravagant attire, several men were drawn to her, attempting to harass her.

Su Meixi felt she was in danger.

Once, a man touched her breast, and she bit her lip without resisting. The man emboldened, pressed against her.

The woman’s expression showed her endurance, until she could no longer bear it and took a few steps forward to distance herself from the man.

Several times Su Meixi thought of intervening, but in the end, restrained herself.

The girl had come alone; if she disliked it, she could just leave. Why endure by staying here?

Out of curiosity, Su Meixi still checked on the woman from time to time.

After the band played a few songs, it was time for dancing. The woman went down to the dance floor as well.

This was like a sheep walking into a wolf’s den. While seated, the men didn’t dare to do much, but on the dance floor, where everyone was packed together, a bunch of men took the opportunity to move toward her.

Seeing her engulfed in a crowd of men, touching and bumping, Su Meixi could no longer stand by idly. She took Gu Wei with her to the dance floor.

Finally reaching the woman, they saw her lingerie had been opportunely taken off; she was helplessly covering her chest and trying to dodge the men in front of her.

Su Meixi couldn’t help but shout, “None of you come over here!”

While she took off her jacket and draped it over the girl, she called for someone, “Zhao Gongji, Zhao Gongji.”

Gu Wei initially didn’t want to meddle, but seeing Su Meixi step in, he instinctively moved to protect them.

With him there, none of those men dared to come close.

Su Meixi escorted the woman outside, and that’s when Wang Bing noticed them and followed.

“Meixi, you’re here too?”

“I… just got here,” Su Meixi said awkwardly.

Wang Bing looked at the girl and asked, “If you can’t stand their harassment, why do you keep coming here every day?”

Su Meixi asked, “Do you know her?”

“I just helped her out last night and reminded her not to dress so revealingly when coming here, but who knew she would still show up today,” Wang Bing said.

At this moment, Zhao Gongji came over, showing utter disdain: “It’s you again. If you really want to find a man, just boldly set up a date with them. I won’t care how you mess around then, but you come here every day to let them take advantage of you and then can’t handle the play, aren’t you just cheap?”

The girl was named Chen Meizhi, and she started to cry.

Then, she returned her coat to Su Meixi and ran off.

Su Meixi and Wang Bing looked at each other, at a loss.

Su Meixi asked Zhao Gongji, “Does she come here often?”

“Yes, she does,” replied Zhao Gongji.

“Why does she do this? Do you know?”

Zhao Gongji hesitated at first, but then said after a short pause, “Some people just have such fetishes. I’ve seen plenty. Sister Xi and Sister Bing, you’ve seen less, better not to pry into it.”

Su Meixi: “…”

After Zhao Gongji walked away, Wang Bing started to feel a bit embarrassed.

She had been coming to the bar these past few days without telling Su Meixi, and now that Su Meixi had run into her, it felt a bit like being caught in the act.

Su Meixi had initially wanted to pretend not to see, but now that she had seen, she feigned ignorance and said, “Wang Bing, how come you didn’t call me when you were coming to the bar?”

Wang Bing glanced at Gu Wei and said, “Don’t you have company? Why would I call you so I can be a third wheel?”

The two looked at each other and smiled, instantly diffusing the awkwardness.

Wang Bing took out her phone to check the time, then said, “It’s getting late, I should head off.”

“Let’s go together, we’re leaving too.”

“Alright then.”

They left the bar together.

On the way, Su Meixi took the opportunity to tell Wang Bing that she was going to take a leave of absence, “I won’t be at the hospital next week, if anything comes up, remember to cover for me.”

“No problem,” Wang Bing said generously.

Their relationship was now considered very good within the hospital.

Just as they were about to part ways, they heard a piercing scream from around the corner.

Gu Wei was the most vigilant and immediately sprinted towards the source of the noise.

Su Meixi and Wang Bing hurriedly followed.

By the time they arrived, they saw Gu Wei had already taken down two men, and in the corner, a woman with her upper body exposed was hugging herself and shivering.

Chen Meizhi?

Su Meixi quickly took off her coat again to cover Chen Meizhi.

As she drew closer, she saw that Chen Meizhi’s body was bruised and swollen, presumably oppressed right after leaving the bar, and her face was swollen too.

She couldn’t help but get angry and said, “What happened to you? Dressed like that leaving the bar, don’t you know to hail a cab?”

Many people online, when they see a girl being bullied, will condemn the men, and Su Meixi was aware of the freedom to dress as one pleases, but human nature can’t be challenged. Sure, you can wear colorful clothes, costumes, menswear, or even dress as an old man, but if you flaunt yourself in underwear more revealing than a bikini in front of men, aren’t you inviting the wolf?”
